ISSUE DETAILS/CAPITAL HISTORY:
The company is coming out with its maiden book building route IPO of 1782600 equity shares to mobilize Rs. 42.60 cr. The company has announced the price band of Rs. 227 – Rs. 239 per share of Rs. 10 each. The IPO opens for subscription on December 23, 2025, and will close on December 26, 2025. The minimum application to be made is for 1200 shares and in multiple of 600 shares thereon, thereafter. Post allotment, shares will be listed on BSE SME. The issue constitutes 26.32% of post-IPO paid-up equity capital of the company. From the net proceeds of the issue, the company will utilize Rs. 15.50 cr. for working capital, Rs. 16.47 cr. for capex on purchase of new machinery with installation cost, and the rest for general corporate purpose.
The IPO is solely lead managed by Aftertrade Broking Pvt. Ltd., while Maashitla Securities Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar to the issue. Aftertrade Broking Pvt. Ltd. and NMM Securities Pvt. Ltd. are the market makers. NNM Securities Pvt. Ltd. is a syndicate member.
The company has issued/converted initial equity shares at par value, it has issued further equity shares at a fixed price of Rs. 206 per share in July 2024. The company has also issued bonus equity shares in the ratio of 3 for 1 in June 2022, 6 for 10 in March 2024, and 1 for 1 in October 2024. The average cost of acquisition of shares by the promoters is Rs. NIL, Rs. 0.57, and Rs. (2.36) per share.
Post-IPO, company’s current paid-up equity capital of Rs. 4.99 cr. will stand enhanced to Rs. 6.77 cr. Based on the upper price band of the IPO, the company is looking for a market cap of Rs. 161.87 cr.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:
On the financial performance front, for the last three fiscals, the company has posted a total revenue/net profit, of Rs. 13.18 cr. / Rs. 0.10 cr. (FY23), Rs. 19.80 cr. / Rs. 3.35 cr. (FY24), Rs. 53.52 cr. / Rs. 6.10 cr. (FY25). For Q1- FY26 ended on June 30, 2025, it earned a net profit of Rs. 3.02 cr. on a total revenue of Rs. 23.06 cr.
For the last three fiscals, the company has reported an average EPS of Rs. 8.81 (simple average), and an average RoNW of 34.00%. The issue is priced at a P/BV of 4.76 based on its NAV of Rs. 50.18 as of June 30, 2025, but its post-IPO NAV data is missing from the offer documents.
If we attribute its FY26 super annualized earnings on post-IPO expanded equity base, then the asking price is at a P/E of 13.41, and based on its FY25 earnings, the P/E stands at 26.56. Thus, the issue appears fully priced based on inflated profits for fancy valuations.
The company has posted PAT margins of 0.74% (FY23), 17.01% (FY24), 11.43% (FY25), 13.09% (Q1-FY26), and RoCE Margins of 13.18%, 68.59%, 44.00%, 68.49%, respectively, for the referred periods.
DIVIDEND POLICY:
The company not paid any dividends for the reported periods of the offer document. It will adopt a prudent dividend policy, based on its financial performances and future prospects.
COMPARISON WITH LISTED PEERS:
As per the offer document, the company has shown Affordable Robotic and Bemco Hydraulics., as its listed peers. They are currently trading at a P/E of 145.0, and 31.7 (as of December 19, 2025, 2025). However, they are not truly comparable on an apple-to-apple basis. This comparison appears to be an eyewash.
MERCHANT BANKER’S TRACK RECORDS:
This is the 1st mandate from Aftertrade Broking in the ongoing fiscal, and has no past track records so far.
Conclusion / Investment Strategy
ASL is engaged in designing and building specialized machines for Indian and Global engineering industry. It has an annualized capacity of 100 machines per year. The company posted boosted numbers from FY25 onwards, that raises eyebrows and concern over its sustainability going forward. Based on its recent financial numbers, the issue appears fully priced. Tiny paid-up equity capital post-IPO indicates longer gestation period. Well-informed/cash surplus investors may park funds for medium term.
